"Songwriting
is the most sacred thing in my life. It's how
I process my world. For now, it's usually me
and my piano (that I rent cause I don't have
one), my lousy grammar, and some emotion that
makes me feel like I'm bursting at the seams.
And it's the best feeling in the world." - Sara
Bareilles

TIMELINE

Singer and songwriter Sara Beth
Bareilles was born December 7, 1979. Sara
self-released the LP Careful
Confessions which led to a record deal with
Epic. Sara grew up in Eureka, California and went
to college at UCLA. It was after college when
Sara began performing her music at local clubs
and created two demos (The First One and
The Summer Sessions). Sara's journey to
the top of the charts got a boost when iTunes
offered her eventual single "Love Song" as the 'free download' of the
week. The exposure helped spark interest in her
major label debut release Little
Voice.

July 3: Sara released Little
Voice.
Sara said of the LP: "It's a collection of
songs that pretty much mean the world to me. They
chronicle my life, my relationships, my
basket-case-ness, and my utter devotion to trying
to write honest stuff down and share it. That's
where the title comes from. This record was
really about me learning to trust my own
instincts, and more importantly, recognize how
desperately I needed to learn to listen to
myself, however inexperienced and naive I may be.
It sounds cliche, but that little voice is
sometimes the only voice that's speaking the
truth. I think that's pretty f***ing cool."
